    D&D 5E (2014) Multi-classing and the fighter's extra attack

    For a level 11 Fighter/6 Ranger You get 3 attacks and not 2 or 4. Thats why its worded that way.

    D&D 5E (2014) I just don't see why they even bothered with the Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide.

    Unsurprisingly, some of the things you think were terrible, I thought were great, and some of the things you think weren't that bad, I thought were terrible. To each their own.

    D&D 5E (2014) Escapist article on SCAG is Brutal.

    In the section on "The Afterlife" it reads: Souls that are unclaimed by the servants of the gods are judged by Kelemvor, who decides the fate of each one. Some are charged with serving as guides for other lost souls, while others are transformed into squirming larvae and cast into the dust. The...

    D&D 5E (2014) Escapist article on SCAG is Brutal.

    I found the review unhelpful. It wasn't clear to me that the reviewer read more than the table of contents.

    Thats assuming that they believe that maintaining those margins are sustainable, but everything Mearls has said points to them believing its not sustainable even if the margins currently exist.

    D&D 5E (2014) Dealing with rogue solo burglaring in town

    I would roll on one of the treasure tables from the DMG that has the level of treasure you think is appropriate, and divine the result by 4 (average party size)

    Licensing it out, would be the same as them publishing it. They homebrew, not more "mandatory canon" Mulhorand pantheon gets a brief mention, and you can use that to extrapolate to other pantheons you know about.

    Most KS that I have seen, have not published their material to be bought in stores after the KS is over. The purpose of Ks and how its actually used, are different.

    D&D 5E (2014) Escapist article on SCAG is Brutal.

    When I read about deities, I want to know what sort of ideals they represent, and what sort of behaviors would indicate that somebody follows one diety over another. The Domain is the least interesting part because I can pick a domain without a diety if I want. If the game I'm playing ever...

    D&D 5E (2014) Escapist article on SCAG is Brutal.

    I don't agree that they aren't publishing books because of profits. I think its much more subtle than that. Its my opinion that they want the majority of options to be homebrews, 3rd party publications. Because the majority of players get overwhelmed by too many products, and the fans which...

    D&D 5E (2014) Accidental cheating due to forgetting action economies?

    I like this "second action" idea. I'll try using it and see if it makes things more clear.

    D&D 5E (2014) Opinions on Bladesinger

    When using the snake style and a whip with reach. But no spell sniper feat.

    D&D 5E (2014) Escapist article on SCAG is Brutal.

    I agree it's not useful in play.. However for me, it has been very useful for character creation, in our Under Ilfaer game I just made a character based on all the worldly information. Backstory, various beliefs (not a cleric) escaped homelands, etc.

    D&D 5E (2014) Training and Downtime

    Can somebody remind me how long the Wheel of time serieis was? I think somebody pointed out that it goes from farm boy to messiah in less than a year or two.

    D&D 5E (2014) Rise of Tiamat Questions

    My understanding of the horn was that it was making a constant noise, that fades like a background noise, but interrupts Dragon behavior if they aren't moving towards the well.

    D&D 5E (2014) Escapist article on SCAG is Brutal.

    I was actually really impressed with how the divine descriptions were applicable to all characters, they even explain why a perfectly good hero might get drawn to an evil deity. Also, I haven't finished the book yet, I'm only on page 50, but so far the greater world perspective helps me better...

    D&D 5E (2014) Escapist article on SCAG is Brutal.

    Pretty sure it was a statement that they would only put out new character options with setting books and/or free online articles.

    D&D 5E (2014) Escapist article on SCAG is Brutal.

    There was a podcost/audio interview with Mike Mearls where he said that all future character options would come in thematic books. His classic example was a Seafaring book with all the rules for doing ship battles, and having classes such as the swashbuckler or storm sorcerer. Obviously, his...

    D&D 5E (2014) Legendary issues

    Is there a rule that actions can't be taken outside of combat? I never noticed it.
